Forschungsschwerpunkte

Biological stress responses are a priority research focus in modern biology and there is an urgent need to understand how cells and organisms respond to environmental, physiological, and pathological stresses.

The DFG-funded Graduate College 1657 provides an excellent interdisciplinary environment for research in molecular radiation biology together with a comprehensive education curriculum in this field. Research is focusing on different aspects of the molecular and cellular response and molecular targets to ionizing irradiation.
